Long ago in another life, Lloyd and I used to go to Lincoln to the surplus auctions. We’d stop off at Super Saver to get a couple of donuts, and usually could get a couple for a buck. Now? Auctions are held online and donuts are over a dollar. Cherry Rosettes are my favorite, but they’re often sold out when I get to the store.
Well, King Arthur Flour has an AMAZING recipe for cinnamon roll dough. (Click here to read it.) I’ve made a couple of batches, but instead of the cinnamon-sugar filling, I’m using raspberry jam.
I make them smaller than the recipe suggests – they say this makes 8, but I make 16. Then? I package them up by twos and freeze them.
Get out a package and warm it up, have with coffee. (It would be better with frosting, but this is just fine.)
Take that, Super Saver.
I love that these are “perfectly pillowy” cinnamon rolls.
Reading that recipe makes me tired. I think I would pay Super Saver for the rosette.
